ptrace.[ch] are currently only used for the ptrace LSM hooks but their
scope will expand with IPCs and audit support. Rename ptrace.[ch] to
task.[ch], which better reflect their content. Similarly, rename
landlock_add_ptrace_hooks() to landlock_add_task_hooks(). Keep header
files for now.

Using ptrace(2) and related debug features on a target process can lead
to a privilege escalation. Indeed, ptrace(2) can be used by an attacker
to impersonate another task and to remain undetected while performing
malicious activities. Thanks to ptrace_may_access(), various part of
the kernel can check if a tracer is more privileged than a tracee.
A landlocked process has fewer privileges than a non-landlocked process
and must then be subject to additional restrictions when manipulating
processes. To be allowed to use ptrace(2) and related syscalls on a
target process, a landlocked process must have a subset of the target
process's rules (i.e. the tracee must be in a sub-domain of the tracer).
